You can even freeze it into individual teacups to serve. Just don’t choose your best antique china that may have a tiny crack that wouldn’t survive the freezer.

SUBSTITUTIONS and VARIATIONS:

1: Instead of strawberries, you can use fresh or frozen blueberries or raspberries for their natural sweetness and help keep this recipe refined sugar-free.

2: Instead of sugar-free chocolate or 95% chocolate poured over the top, you can use my chocolate sugar-free magic shell to satisfy your chocolate craving.

3: Instead of adding alcohol, you can use brandy essence, rum essence, or whiskey extract to make this frozen dessert alcohol-free.

4: Instead of plain whipped cream, why not add unsweetened cacao powder to the recipe for a frozen chocolate ice cream dessert or chocolate Christmas pudding. To make this low-carb frozen dessert dairy-free you can use whipped coconut cream.

5: Instead of vanilla essence (vanilla extract) you can use peppermint extract, brandy extract, orange essence, and even rum essence.

    Hi Libby, we tried out some of your Christmas recipes early so that I could tweak them if necessary. I made this with grated chocolate in place of cocoa nibs and no fruit. It was so easy and looked great but it was way too sweet for us, surprisingly! I’ll make it again in smaller amounts with varying amounts of Stevia to try to make it taste perfect for us. Can’t wait

    1. Hi Julie, yes the amount of sweetener is so personal depending on how long you have been sugar free and low carb (and your personal preference). I always say “sweetener of choice and to taste”. Add a little at a time and continue to taste as you can always add more, but cannot remove it. If a recipe turns out not sweet enough, you can always rescue it by serving with sweetened cream.

    I just did it and guess what?! It’s more than delicious… No words to describe… It just saved my Sunday!

    When you say peppermint flavouring do you mean the peppermint essence you would find in the same place as the vanilla essence in the baking aisle? And how much would you suggest using if you don’t want the peppermint flavour to be overwhelming? Thank you!

    1. Yes peppermint flavouring/essence is what I use. Just add a few drops at a time and taste before the addition of any more, so it’s not overpowering for you. Enjoy.

  4. I just put mine in the freezer for dinner Christmas Eve but my cream got very over whipped. Will that make the dessert too hard once frozen? If so would there be any way to salvage it a bit?

    1. Bother. Maybe let it defrost a little before serving. Serve with berries and pouring cream? That would take the ‘dryness’ out of the over-whipped cream perhaps.

      1. I ended up making a second batch this morning and putting it in individual bowls rather than one big one so that it would have time to freeze by dinner. I also took the large one I’d originally made and put that in the fridge so it would soften by dinner. I took care not to over whip the cream but the second lot I made ended up rock hard just like the first. Luckily the first one softened enough that it was firm and held together, but still soft enough to eat properly. Both tasted great though. My sweet tooth has diminished so that even a bit of sweetness can be too much for me, so I had both dark (90%) and milk chocolate melted in bowls so everyone could take their pick and put on what they wanted. I tried the Old Gold 70% with the Chocolate Heaven Cake and even that was WAY too sweet for me and gave me a headache. I’m actually quite pleased about it because it means I have been following your website well and adjusted so much to sugar free that my body seems to actually be rejecting the sugar 🙂

    Can you do this in a Icecream maker.

    I have made this frozen dessert every Christmas since you posted it back in 2014, I’m a long time fan. My favourite flavour is to add peppermint flavouring to the whipped cream AND the melted chocolate. Thank you for all your quick and easy recipes, they are a life saver at this time of year.

    I thought this was going to be very way too heavy but it was beautiful and hit the spot – perfect for our Central Queensland hot weather Christmas Day feast
